TGG Twinkle- New Arrival!!
Litter born Oct 19.26. Our first ever single pup! Right now looks like a little clone of Mom. Twinkle understood the assignment, this single sow will grow out and join our herd. We can't wait to share her progress 🙌

Thank you to Black Gold & McCabe- this is a second generation tan from our program, we started with some truly incredible cavys.

Guinea Pig Pups🐹

Our litter of guinea pig pups, born September 13th, are ready to find their new families! 🏡

These guinea pigs are home-raised, socialized, and are from excellent lines. These little ones are off to a wonderful start and ready to bring joy to their new homes.

We’re looking for caring, responsible homes where they’ll receive the love, companionship, and unlimited veggies and hay like they deserve.

Message us to make a reservation:

Coldwater, 2026.

The fair that started our hobby in showing guinea pigs. We needed help identifying breed/variety, tagging and registering, for our first event, which was Coldwater.

Thankfully the secretary for the 2023 show was- and still is today, Shirley Bird. She did an absolutely phenomenal job today organizing, and bringing a great group of people + breed representations together.

Thank you Judges:
Rabbit Judge: Kim Mandley
*Clerk- Lema Chappell
Cavy Judge: Brianne Dart
*Clerk Kim Lawless
Secretary Shirley Bird of Truffles Guinea Pigs
